Beryl will attempt to understand if the cleft was constructed. If Mining or Engineering will help he has those.

Once there, at the bottom of the cleft (about 30 feet down) is what appears to be a small mine shaft entrance. Looking it over Beryl thinks it may have been built as a ventilation shaft as it is only large enough to walk single file in, with the ceiling being about 6 feet high and the width about 4 feet. Less where supports have been placed. It appears that the cleft was intentionally cut out, then disguised with some planted conifers and earth but most of the earth and a couple of the trees have washed out in the past at some point and the mouth of the shaft will need to be cleaned out some to gain access.

Beryl will quietly let the group know that this exists and will estimate the amount of work (time) to gain access.

With everyone working at it you think it can be cleared out in around an hour, two max.

Beryl will get started on clearing out the "entrance" (and giving direction to those that help).

Lharzin comes forward to the mine shaft, reaching out to place her palms on the bedrock, rather than moving the loose detrius.

The first one is a Critical Failure. You will need to rest a few hours before you can try again. After that your second roll is a Marginal Success.

Make a skill improvement roll please, 1d100+17, a 35+ goes up 1 to 35.

You get to ask 3 simple questions. Yes/No or one word answers.

Skill improvement [1d100+17]=10+17=27

How many years since a dwarf passed here?

How long since other intelligent creatures passed here?

What evil has been here most recently? (Visual?)

I posted in the wrong thread. Can you move these posts from her charactersheet to the New Beginnings adventure?

How many years since a dwarf passed here? 600

How long since other intelligent creatures passed here? Never

What evil has been here most recently? (Visual?) None

You would need to get your mastery level up to 40+ to ask another question in this spot. But further in you can ask other questions.

"The stone says the last beings to pass were dwarves, 600 years ago. At least we seem safe from gargun and ivashu entering here..."

Beryl oversees and contributes with the clearing of the tunnel. Lharzin stands watch as she recovers from her first attempt at questioning the stone here. The work is slower going then expected and there are a couple of mess ups that cause some minor collapses but after 4 hours the tunnel is clear and night is setting in and everyone except Lharzin are tired and hungry.

Marginal Failure. Just took longer than expected.

Actions.
